that state very much tied. look at this poll, wolf, that came out over the weekend that gave some democrats some heartburn out there, from the state of minnesota, a poll showing president obama clinging to a three-point lead, 47-44. and then in north carolina, a little bit of heartburn for the republicans, a poll showing mitt romney and president obama tied up at 45-45. those polls demonstrate why both campaigns are playing it safe right now. they don't want to look too political when you have the mother of october surprises looming there off the coast and her name is sandy. >> yeah. what an october surprise. we have no idea how it's going to impact early voting, who it might help, who it won't help and what it might mean eight days from now. jim acosta, thank you. the national hurricane center is getting ready to issue an update on hurricane sandy in the next few minutes. stay with us for the latest on the storm's strength and where it's heading. dad vo: ok, time for bed, kiddo. lights out. ♪ (sirens) (train

if president obama can win these three, on top of the solid blue states democrats have taken in the last several elections, he will have the 271 electoral votes he needs to win, even if governor romney sweeps all the rest of the battleground states. which is why you do see governor romney making a late play in pennsylvania. he's going to be there today in the suburbs of philadelphia. pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes are an insurance policy against a loss in ohio. democrats are calling it a hail mary, but the race is tighter than expected there,en so, the gamble makes some sense. romney will need to win pennsylvania if the president's firewall holds. david? >> george stephanopoulos, who will be guiding us all through election night, thank you. >>> and now to a key group both sides have tried to court, the hispanic vote. the president leads among hispanics, 66% to 28%. and keep in mind, john mccain got 31%, more than that, four years ago. how big a role will hispanic voters play? we turn to our partners at univision, and jorge ramos tonight. hjorg jorge? >> reporter: david, the new rule i
